The One Peter Five blog has a follow up to their previous story that Cardinal Ratzinger had allegedly told his friend, Fr. Dollinger, in 2000, that the published part of the Third Secret of Fatima is
authentic and that the unpublished part....speaks about “a
bad council and a bad Mass” that was to come in the near future.

There was a Vatican denial to this revelation in May 2016, which stated “the publication of the
Third Secret of Fatima is complete, ” see here. The statement was unusually worded and formulated.

"In May of 2016, OnePeterFive received a public denial from the Vatican’s Press Office with regard to a story
that we had published about the apparently still missing part of the
Third Secret of Fatima. On 15 May 2016, Dr. Ingo Dollinger, a saintly
priest and long-time friend of then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, had
confirmed to us that Cardinal Ratzinger – shortly after the 26 June 2000
publication of the Third Secret of Fatima – had admitted to him that
one part of that secret was still not published.
However, in the 21 May 2016 Press Communique from
the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI was himself quoted as having said “never
to have spoken with Professor Dollinger about Fatima” and, secondly,
that “the publication of the Third Secret is complete.” Right after this
denial and added affirmation, Dr. Dollinger insisted again upon bearing
his own witness. In the wake of this somewhat unsettling development,
we therefore inquired further about the virtuous life and witness of Dr.
Dollinger – who himself was also a close collaborator of Saint Padre
Pio – and we then also published a short story of his life in order to give more credence and even a moral certitude to his story.

As Nardi now reports, he first happened to visit Gottfried Kiniger on
21 December 2016, where he incidentally and quite informally mentioned
the Dollinger story, as it had been publicly discussed more broadly
after that 21 May of 2016. Kiniger, who does not use the Internet, had
not yet heard about that story. Nardi continues, by saying:

After hearing about the [21 May 2016] denial coming from
Rome, Kiniger became very upset. He could not imagine that Benedict XVI
was to have made such a statement, because what Hickson had reported is
what Dollinger had told him already in 2000. For this reason, there took
place a second conversation at which Kiniger’s own description was
recorded.

That second and recorded conversation took place some three weeks
later, on 17 January 2017. Kiniger has now wholeheartedly given his
approval for the publication of his own personal witness with regard to
the Dollinger case. In the following, we shall present Nardi’s own
report and technical recording of Kiniger’s own words:

“I do not remember the exact date,” says Kiniger, “but it
was still in the year 2000, I am sure about that. I still remember the
press conference [about the publication of the Third Secret of Fatima]
in Rome, as it was then shown on television. In the fall, I visited
again, as usual, Dollinger with whom I am friends for many years. On
this occasion, he told me of his having met Cardinal Ratzinger – then
Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith – shortly
after that [June 2000] press conference. He even then con-celebrated
with him, something which Dollinger usually does not do, but Ratzinger
had invited him to do it. After the celebration [of the Holy Sacrifice
of the Mass], Dollinger spoke with the cardinal and brought up the topic
of Fatima and the Third Secret. Ratzinger told him: ‘What we have
published is not the whole secret. [‘Was wir veröffentlicht haben, ist nicht das ganze Geheimnis.’]
In the sacristy, there were also present other priests – some of them
high-ranking priests – to whom the cardinal had to attend
intermittently. But he soon returned to Dollinger and said to him: ‘We
were instructed to do so.’ [‘Es ist uns so aufgetragen worden.’]
This same sentence Dollinger, a second time, repeated: ‘We were
instructed to do so.’ He [Dollinger] has interpreted these words, as
such: namely, that John Paul II wanted it and ordered it this way. At
this meeting, when Dollinger told me all these things, other people were
also present, among them my own companion.

In the years to follow, Dollinger told of this episode again and
again, several times, at our meetings. Most of the time, there were also
several other people present. It was no secret, there was nothing that
he kept secret. This is what the cardinal told him, this is what he
passed on to others. Sometimes, there were priests and seminarians also
sitting with us at the table who came from the seminary of the
Fraternity of St. Peter in Wigratzbad."
